Watching the teasing of these young girls, Liu Erlong found it even harder to express her distress.
In reality, Lin Yuan was doing it on purpose.
He could now see Liu Erlong's anxious little expression with just a glance.
You want me to write about you?
Hehe, I'm precisely not going to write about you.
Liu Erlong's fiery temper needed to be cooled down and tempered.
Lin Yuan's lips curled into a mischievous smile, and he sat down in a great mood, picking up his chopsticks to start serving himself food... The banquet began.
Although it was a so-called exchange banquet, the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.
The students from Heaven Dou Royal Academy were all in high Spirits, having won the competition and witnessed Xiao Wu's abnormal strength.
As for Blue Tyrant Academy, Tai Long sat in a corner with a pig-like face, while the others bowed their heads and ate their rice, not daring to speak.
Liu Erlong was naturally unwilling to give up just like that.
She held a wine glass and actively sat next to Lin Yuan, the unique fragrance of a mature woman instantly assailing him.
Liu Erlong forced a gentle smile that didn't suit her personality and poured Lin Yuan a glass of wine: "Lin Yuan, your Heaven Dou Battle Team truly opened my eyes in the competition just now."
"Come, I'll toast you."
This was just making conversation, trying to forcefully start a chat.
Lin Yuan merely glanced at her indifferently, picked up the juice nearby, and took a sip.
"Apologies, Dean Liu."
"I don't drink alcohol."
"Underage drinking affects development."
"…"
The smile on Liu Erlong's face instantly froze.
What the heck affects development!
How tall are you already?
But for the reward, she endured it!
"Cough cough, it's good not to drink, it's a good habit."
Liu Erlong awkwardly put down the wine glass and changed the topic: "Oh right, Lin Yuan, you didn't make a move in this exchange competition. I heard your Spirit is called the god slaying spear, I wonder what its characteristics are? Why such an overbearing name?"
Unfortunately, Lin Yuan still looked unyielding. He picked up a piece of braised pork, put it in his mouth, and mumbled indistinctly: "A spear, well, it's for poking people. It's long and hard, and it can kill people, that's all."
"Nothing special."
"…"
Liu Erlong felt her blood pressure soaring.
There's no way to chat with him!
This was pure perfunctoriness!
Looking at Lin Yuan's dismissive attitude, Liu Erlong felt a lump in her chest, unable to go up or down.
She was still a charming and beautiful Dean, wasn't she?
Normally, countless men who tried to talk to her would be kicked away.
Today she took the initiative to approach him, yet this kid completely ignored her?
This really... infuriates me!
...Just as Liu Erlong was on the verge of exploding.
Yu Tianheng, who had been sitting by the side quietly observing, couldn't bear it anymore.
He felt that his aunt was acting too unusually today.
Where was the domineering and aggressive "horn of slaughter" from before?
Why was she pretending to be gentle here?
So, Yu Tianheng quietly pulled Liu Erlong to a corner of the banquet hall, lowered his voice, and said with a look of helplessness and embarrassment: "Aunt Erlong, what are you doing?"
"Why does it seem like... you've been intentionally or unintentionally trying to flirt with Lin Yuan?"
"If outsiders saw this, they'd think..."
They'd think you're an old cow eating tender grass!
Of course, Yu Tianheng didn't dare to say the last sentence out loud, unless he wanted to be roasted into charcoal.
Liu Erlong was already in a fit of pique, and being interrupted by her nephew made her even more ill-tempered.
She glared at Yu Tianheng and said with a fake smile: "What? Is it wrong for me, as an elder, to care for a junior?"
"Besides."
Liu Erlong's eyes darted around as she found an excuse: "I'm just curious, why could Lin Yuan defeat you? He's so much younger than you, how did you lose?"
Yu Tianheng's mouth twitched, feeling as if his heart had been poked.
That's a painful jab, Aunt!
She's really bringing up a sore subject!
Does she have any emotional intelligence?
No wonder Lin Yuan doesn't want to deal with you!
Yu Tianheng sighed and could only explain helplessly:
"I don't regret losing to him. It's said that behind Lin Yuan is a Master of unfathomable strength."
"It must be his Master who found him some Heaven-Defying Cultivation resources, which is why his spirit power Cultivation speed is faster than mine."
"If I had his spirit ring configuration, he definitely wouldn't be my opponent!"
Even though Yu Tianheng lost, he was still very confident in his Spirit.
The number one Beast Spirit on the continent!
If he had Lin Yuan's spirit ring configuration, Lin Yuan definitely wouldn't be his opponent!
"spirit ring configuration?"
Liu Erlong asked, feigning curiosity: "What kind of configuration could it be? Isn't it just two yellow and one purple?"
"That's the optimal combination, could there be anything more spectacular?"
"Optimal combination?"
"Heh... Aunt, you really underestimate that monster."
"His three spirit rings are Black! Purple! Black!"
"Black, Purple, Black?!" Liu Erlong's pupils constricted. "Are you saying... ten thousand years, one thousand years, ten thousand years?!"
Liu Erlong was truly shocked this time; she didn't know! Lin Yuan hadn't shown off in his diary, how could he resist writing it in his diary!
Yu Tianheng nodded, his face full of bitterness: "Yes, at the time I also thought I was under an illusion, but that terrifying oppressive feeling couldn't be fake."
"Moreover, Xiao Wu's spirit ring configuration, you saw it in today's exchange competition."
"Her second spirit ring was actually purple too, which definitely has something to do with Lin Yuan!"
"If only we could know how they did it..."
A trace of longing flashed in Yu Tianheng's eyes. If the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan could Master this secret method, dominating the continent would be just around the corner!
...After hearing her nephew's words, Liu Erlong's heart was completely in turmoil.
She originally just wanted to get a Cultivation Technique reward, but she also wanted to increase the age of her spirit rings.
Liu Erlong could no longer sit still and immediately opened the chat group, directly @ing Xiao Wu.
[Irritable Pig Farmer: @Bunny Who Loves Tanghulu, Xiao Wu, let me ask you something, why is your second spirit ring purple?]
[Irritable Pig Farmer: Did the System upgrade it for you? Or did Lin Yuan use some special method to upgrade it for you?]
As soon as this question was asked, everyone who had been lurking watched.
However, Xiao Wu's reply made Liu Erlong get a cold shoulder.
[Bunny Who Loves Tanghulu: Hehe, I won't tell you~ Aunt Erlong, I'm not very familiar with you.]
[Bunny Who Loves Tanghulu: This is a secret between me and my brother, and also a secret among us 'insiders.']
[Seven Treasures Little Rich Girl: That's right, that's right, this is confidential, no comment!]
[I Want to Live Past Thirty: Aunt Erlong, don't ask anymore, this is a secret between us and Brother Lin Yuan, outsiders can't know.]
[Nine Hearts: +1.]
The four girls' unanimous statement in the chat group immediately attracted the attention of Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, the two Zhu sisters, and other diary instance owners.
What did they mean by saying that?
